Gift Packs You Need In Your Life

By Natasha Van Der Laan - 29 Aug 2016

Need to buy a gift that special someone but get the heebie jeebies just thinking about trawling the mall? Fear not! This is where online gift packs come in. These gift packs will take the stress and hassle out of present shopping and put you on the fast-track to being the best friend everrr. All it takes is a few mouse clicks and they’ll be delivered right to the doorstep of your buddy—hurrah! We heart these five gift packs.

Willow & Wolfe

Fussy wife, particular sister or have-it-all friend… Willow & Wolfe has a gift hamper for them! Here you’ll find what is probably the most extensive collection of gift boxes. The hampers themselves have the best names—clever mummy, cuppa tea love, hard to buy for and spoiled brat. We’re particular fond of the chocalicious box packed with hot chocolate, fudge sauce and a whooole lot of chocolate. There’s also the option to custom-make your hamper for “those types who don’t like gherkin in their cheeseburger”.

Candybox

Calling all sweet tooths! Allow us to introduce you to Candybox. They specialise in—you guessed it—boxes filled with candy. There’s a box for every occasion with the crisp, white boxes displaying your choice of message. Choose between the likes of “You’re Awesome”, “Congrats!” or “Just Because”. The boxes are then filled with either candy, chocolate or fudge and sent to your loved one. They can be couriered anywhere in the country for just $20—noice!

Gift Saint

There’s no need to wander aimlessly around the mall to find a gift. No soiree! Instead, load up Gift Saint and select from their wide range of gift boxes. Bestie’s birthday? Order the celebration box with a candle, purse, cake mix and a bottle of Moet champagne (it is a birthday after all). Mother’s Day? Show your love with a mama bear box packed with dishcloths, hand cream and chocolate.

Home Hampers

Us Kiwis are a talented bunch and nobody knows this better than Home Hampers. Their delightful gift packs showcase everything good New Zealand has to offer. Think Bennetts of Mangawhai marshmallows, Kokako coffee, Mother Fudge fudge and Hogarth chocolate. The friendly boutique gifting studio want you (and your buddy) to walk away with a smile, so they’re more than happy to custom design a gift to suit your budget and occasion.

The Gift Loft

Last, but in no ways least, you’ve got The Gift Loft. They have more gift packs that you can poke a stick at—seriously, there are heeeaps! Luckily, their website is pretty darn easy to navigate. Their products are categorised into sections such as “get well gifts”, “study hampers” and “chocolate lover’s gifts” (our personal fave). They also have an extensive range of gourmet food hampers, including several packs catering to gluten-free folk.
